The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. Under Project Blue Book, the US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years; and we continue this research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO's are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.

Secret Air Force Evaluation of Flying Discs

This is a transcription of General Nathan Twinning's letter as Commander Air Material Command, 1947-09-23).

SUBJECT: AMC Opinion Concerning "Flying Discs"

To: Commanding General Army Air Force

Washington 25, D.C.

ATTENTION: Brig. General George Schulgen

AC/AS-2'

1. As requested by AC/AS-2 there is presented below the considered opinion of this command concerning the so-called "Flying Discs." This opinion is based on interrogation report data furnished by AC/AS-2 and preliminary studies by personnel of T-2 and Aircraft Laboratory, Engineering Division T-3. This opinion was arrived at in a conference between personnel from the Air Institute of Technology, Intelligence T-2, Office, Chief of Engineering Division, and the Aircraft, Power Plant and Propeller Laboratories of Engineering Division T-3.

2. It is the opinion that:

a. The phenomenon is something real and not visionary or fictitious.b. There are objects probably approximating the shape of a disc, of such appreciable size as to appear to be as large as man-made aircraft.c. There is a possibility that some of the incidents may be caused by natural phenomena, such as meteors.d. The reported operating characteristics such as extreme rates of climb, maneuverability (particularly in roll), and motion which must be considered evasive when sighted or contacted by friendly aircraft and radar, lend belief to the possibility that some of the objects are controlled either manually, automatically or remotely.e. The apparent common description is as follows-

1. Metallic or light reflecting surface.2. Absence of trail, except in a few instances where the object apparently was operating under high performance conditions.3. Circular or elliptical in shape, flat on bottom and domed on top.4. Several reports of well kept formation flights varying from three to nine objects.5. Normally no associated sound, except in three instances a substantial rumbling roar was noted.6. Level flight speeds normally above 300 knots are estimated.

f. It is possible within the present U.S. knowledge -- provided extensive detailed development is undertaken -- to construct a piloted aircraft which has the general description of the object in sub- paragraph (e) above which would be capable of an approximate range of 7000 miles at subsonic speeds.g. Any development in this country along the lines indicated would be extremely expensive, time consuming and at the considerable expense of current projects and therefore, if directed, should be set up independently of existing projects.h. Due consideration must be given the following:-

1. The possibility that these objects are of domestic origin - the product of some high security project not known to AC/AS-2 or this Command.2. The lack of physical evidence in the shape of crash recovered exhibits which would undeniably prove the existence of these subjects.3. The possibility that some foreign nation has a form of propulsion possibly nuclear, which is outside of our domestic knowledge.

3. It is recommended that:- Headquarters, Army Air Forces issue a directive assigning a priority, security classification and Code name for a detailed study of this matter to include the preparation of complete sets of all available and pertinent data which will then be made available to the Army, Navy, Atomic Energy Commission, JRDB, the Air Force Scientific Advisory Group, NACA, and the RAND and NEPA projects for comments and recommendations, with a preliminary report to be forwarded within 15 days of receipt of the data and a detailed report thereafter every 30 days as the investigation develops. A complete interchange of data should be affected.

Space Probe Passes Asteroid Lutetia

The European Space Agency's (ESA) comet-chasing probe Rosetta has captured the first close-up images of the asteroid Lutetia. Holger Sierks is the principal investigator on the Osiris camera system.

On 10 July 2010, the probe—took 400 images with its cameras, spectrometers, and magnetic-field experiments more passed within 3162 km of Lutetia. Lutetia is the largest asteroid ever visited by a space probe. The new pictures reveal it has an uneven surface covered by craters, and a stretched-out body that is about 130 km at its longest side. Lutetia is located between Mars and Jupiter. Thanks to http://blogs.nature.com/news/thegreatbeyond/2010/07/space_probe_passes_asteroid_lu.html

Ufologist John Keel Remembered

John Keel, was a prominent American ufologist and the author of "The Mothman Prophecies” (1975), a book about paranormal phenomena which was made into a successful film starring Richard Gere.

One of ufology's most widely-read and influential authors, Keel became an original and controversial researcher, and is credited with coining the term MIB (Men In Black), sinister and threatening entities who assume human form to confront ufologists and UFO witnesses.

Of particular importance was Keel's analysis of patterns. His work on "windows” (specific hot spots of combined phenomenal appearances), "waves” (cyclic appearances of the phenomena) and the "Wednesday phenomenon” (the theory that a disproportionate number of UFO events occur on that day of the week) influenced scholars and followers of the genre alike.

He commenced a full-time investigation of UFOs and paranormal phenomena and read over 2,000 books, and interviewed thousands of people in over twenty U.S. states.

He read newspaper-clipping services, which often generated up to 150 clippings for a single day during the 1966 and 1967 UFO "wave". Keel wrote for several magazines including Saga with one 1967 article UFO Agents of Terror referring to the Men in Black. Keel died on July 3, 2009, at 79.

However, after one year of investigations, Keel concluded that the extraterrestrial hypothesis was untenable. Indeed, both Hynek and Vallée eventually arrived at a similar conclusion. As Keel himself wrote, "I abandoned the extraterrestrial hypothesis in 1967 when my own field investigations disclosed an astonishing overlap between psychic phenomena and UFOs... The objects and apparitions do not necessarily originate on another planet and may not even exist as permanent constructions of matter. It is more likely that we see what we want to see and interpret such visions according to our contemporary beliefs”.

In ‘UFOs: Operation Trojan Horse' Keel argues that a non-human or spiritual intelligence has staged whole events over a long period of time in order to propagate and reinforce certain erroneous belief systems. For example, the fairy faith in Europe, vampire legends, mystery airships in 1897, mystery aeroplanes of the 1930s, anomalous creature sightings, poltergeist phenomena, balls of light, and UFOs.

In "Our Haunted Planet”, Keel discussed the seldom-considered possibility that the alien "visitors" to Earth are not visitors at all, but an advanced Earth civilization, which may or may not be human. Thanks to http://en.wikipedia.orgEditor's note: I met with John Keel and asked what are UFOs all about? He told me after years of study, "I have concluded it is the devil and his demons.”

The Toxic Gulf of Mexico

Frankly, like most of you I am worried about the Gulf of Mexico that I used to enjoy fishing out of Pensacola, Florida. Their apparently is a devastating cascade of 100,000 barrels + of oil pouring into the Gulf of Mexico each day -- apparently still mixed with the far more toxic dispersant Corexit that British Petroleum continues to inject, into the water sprayed by aircraft despite EPA objections. Corexit EC9500A and Corexit EC9527A are being used in unprecedentedly large quantities in the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Reportedly, Corexit may be toxic to marine life and helps keep spilled oil submerged.

A test-tube collection of oil and Corexit at three different points along the Gulf Coast has brought disturbing results. Corexit is composed of several different solvents primarily used as a dispersant for breaking up of oil slicks. Propylene glycol is thought to be the most dangerous and harmful solvents within Corexit. The test-tube results showed that the coastline has 430 parts per million of propylene glycol. Only 25 parts per million is considered toxic for fish. Mixed with oil the Corexit dispersant mix is something like 150 times the toxic level for fish.

Corexit 9527, considered by the EPA to be an acute health hazard, and is stated by its manufacturer to be potentially harmful to red blood cells, the kidneys and the liver, and may irritate eyes and skin. The chemical 2-butoxyethanol, found in Corexit 9527, was identified as having caused lasting health problems in workers involved in the cleanup of the Exxon Valdez oil spill. Therefore, it seems we have a health hazard to fish, birds, and humans.

European Parliament Needs to Study UFOs.

Mario Borghezio, an Italian member of the European Parliament, says the European Union needs to focus on UFOs and he wants the EU to set up an "observatory” to catalogue incidents of people seeing UFOs in the sky. Serious, thorough research would expose a "systematic cover-up” of UFOs, he said. In his latest press release, Mr. Borghezio quotes an Italian astrophysicist named Massimo Teodorani: "The phenomenon of UFOs is a real manifestation which can be estimated through the physics and the astronomy.”

Italian European Member of the Parliament Mario Borghezio, sponsored the draft resolution that, if passed, would require EU governments to declassify their secret files on UFOs.
The declaration also calls for a research center to investigate alien life. So far, Thirty-One European Members of the 736-seat Parliament Support of Borghezio's UFO initiative.

Borghezio said, "Many members of the scientific community have been looking into the issue of UFOs and have denounced the systematic covering up of information on the subject.” He pointed out that the 33rd General Assembly of the United Nations had officially recognized the existence of UFOs in 1978. We encourage you to write your European Members of Parliament. reports;

Looming ominously like a space ship from Star Wars, Defence firm BAE Systems officially unveiled its first ever high-tech unmanned stealth jet. The Taranis, named after the Celtic god of thunder, is about the same size as a Hawk jet and is equipped with stealth equipment and an 'autonomous' artificial intelligence system. The plane will test the possibility of developing the first ever-autonomous stealthy Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle (UCAV) that would ultimately be capable of precisely striking targets high jet speeds and at long range, even in another continent. The trial aircraft cost £143 million pounds to construct and spearheads BAE's drive to convince the Ministry of Defence to purchase it. Almost invisible to ground radar, it is designed to carry out intelligence and reconnaissance on enemy territory and carry a cache of weapons - including bombs and missiles controlled by satellite communications.

Senators Warn Iran about Nuclear Weapons Facilities

Senator Joseph Lieberman last week said, "The United States may be forced to launch an attack on Iran's nuclear weapons facilities if diplomatic efforts and economic sanctions fail,” after a meeting with Israeli officials in Jerusalem.

Appearing at a news conference with Senators Lindsey Graham and John McCain, Lieberman was unusually harsh in his assessment of the Iranian threat. There is a broad consensus in Congress that military force can be used if necessary to stop Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, he said.

Lieberman cited a recent set of sanctions Congress passed against Iran as a potential deterrent. But he insisted that the goal of keeping Iran from becoming a nuclear power will be accomplished "through diplomatic and economic sanctions if we possibly can, through military actions if we must," according to The Associated Press.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said, " A new wave of sanctions imposed by the United Nations, the United States, and the European Union would have no impact on Iran's economy or its nuclear program'. He called the U.S. sanctions, which President Obama said were Washington's toughest ever, "pathetic" and said the U.N. resolution was worth no more than a "used handkerchief."

Editor's Note: "It is more likely Israel will carry out the bombing or Iran with its F-15 aircraft, but Lieberman's statements should be taken as a warning that the US will not stop Israel from launching attacks as they did on Iraq's and Syria's nuclear facilities. Thanks to Newsmax.

Sightings in the United States

Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center reports, "On Sunday, July 04, 2010, NUFORC received almost 100 similar reports of very peculiar events, which have been witnessed across the U. S. and Canada on July 4th, and perhaps on July 3rd, as well. The sightings are a phenomenon for which we have no ready explanation. Many of the reports from both days have been submitted by seemingly serious-minded individuals, many of whom apparently witnessed the events with multiple other witnesses present in California; Connecticut; Washington, D.C.; Florida; Georgia; Illinois; Indiana; Kentucky; Massachusetts; Manitoba; Michigan; Minnesota; Missouri; North Dakota; Nebraska; New Jersey; New York; Ohio; Oklahoma; Pennsylvania; Tennessee; Texas; Virginia; Vermont; and Washington State. Photo taken over Ottawa, Illinois on July 4, 2010.

The reports are similar, in that the witnesses have described seeing strange red, orange, or yellow "fireballs,” which have been seen either to hover in the night sky, or to streak overhead, sometimes individually, and on some occasions in clusters. In some instances, the objects were observed against a clear, cloudless sky, and in other cases, they were observed below solid or broken overcast. Given the wide area over which the objects were observed, we suspect that there may be hundreds of thousands, or perhaps millions, of people who also were witness to these objects and events, but who have not reported their sightings.

Colorado Boomerang

DENVER SUBURBS -- I was sitting on my deck drinking coffee and noticed a bright object in the NW sky for several minutes that brightened periodically. It stood still, and then started slowly moving toward the SE. I followed the object using 8X32 binoculars and saw a boomerang shaped object thicker in the middle backside. It was flying at an estimated altitude of 100,000 feet. Its size was equal to or greater than a commercial airliner. When I had the object in focus, it slowly rotated about once every 5-10 seconds, as it moved forward. It reflected the sunlight as it rotated. The surface was metallic and white to orange in the color reflected as it progressed toward the SE and nearby trees... Thanks to MUFON CMS

Florida Orb

A friend of mine took this photo on May 23, 2010. She said it had a strange formation and I perceived it to look like a flying saucer. It's not an actual flying saucer but the clouds take the form of one that looks awfully like a UFO. The photo was not edited.

LARGO -- I was sitting outside enjoying one of the rare evenings with low humidity and great star shine on July 9, 2010. Viewing the constellations that were unusually bright, I focused on Scorpio to the south and I moved my view to the southeast and suddenly a large bright yellowish green circle appeared just east of Scorpio. It was trailing a short streak of silver-white plume moving straight northward with incredible speed. It disappeared just as suddenly.

I originally thought I had witnessed merely a common meteor. But, after further thought, a meteor the size of this object would have left a much larger trail and made a brilliant flash of light upon disintegration. And the object just vanished with no final explosion. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Georgia Triangles at 500 Feet

LAWRENCEVILLE -- I was on my way to Publix with my Mom and Dad, when four bright white lights aligned across the front of a UFO flying low. I could see a triangle shape and it was completely silent. All lights were solid. and it was moving fast until you couldn't see it anymore. When we got to Publix I saw another one moving at the same speed, silent, with the same color lights and same direction. I could easily tell they were not planes, because the silence and only solid bright lights. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Illinois Lights

ELGIN -- I was driving home with my wife and son on July 10, 2010, driving west on I-90. We were slowing to a stop near road construction near Elgin when I noticed six in a line lights to the west and pointed them out to my Wife. At first, I thought it was just planes in a landing at O'Hare Airport until we noticed that they were solid orange flickering like fire. My wife and I were worried so I called my Father to see if he heard anything about this. I am familiar with seeing the sky filled with approaching planes with their landing lights etc... In addition, these were not the same. They are moving east and staying level. We lost sight of them as they went near some light clouds. I have attached a sketch that I made in Photoshop. Thanks to MUFON CMS

GALATIA -- I was on my way to work last night at about quarter to ten, on July 11, 2010, my son spotted something in the sky, and he said, "Mom...what is that?" I looked at a square shaped aircraft with four blinking lights at each corner, with a red solid light in the center. It was hovering motionless but shifting from side to side. We watched for five minutes when it just disappeared. It was at about 1500 feet altitude in a cloudless sky. Thanks to MUFON CMS

CHICAGO MIDWAY -- I was getting off the orange line of the Chicago "L" train at Midway Airport on July 2, 2010, at 9:30 PM, and a silent reddish orange fireball type object was flying from south to north. I am a former aircraft mechanic at midway and know where lights are and when they should be on. It flew right over the airport at a good rate of speed at no more that 5000 feet. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center

Minnesota Golden Ball

LAKEVILLE -- Our family attended the July 4, 2010, show at the North High School field at 9 PM, about an hour before the fireworks began and we witnessed a light brown flying object with a glowing golden ball in the center. We know this thing was not an airplane or firework debris, as it slowly flew across the sky overhead in a curved line at the same altitude. The top of this thing spun around, and one side of it was black with something that protruded from it. There was no smoke or sound. A protruding thing swung around the top of it randomly and very slowly while the bottom of it did not spin. There were at least twenty-five people who saw this thing. It really shook me. Reported by Susan Blanch WCCO CBS Radio

Missouri Orb

ST. LOUIS -- At 7:14 PM, on July 12, 2010, I was sitting with my back to a window having a conversation with Steven, 25 years old. His face suddenly changed to a look of surprise while talking with me, sat back, and said, "What was that?" He described seeing a white sphere with a trailing tail, zip out diagonally from behind a tree out the window behind me and shoot up into the sky. He does not think it was a firework because it moved much too fast, and was too "perfect" in its shape and tail and trajectory. He thought it could have been some sort of "craft," but he knows it was not a conventional craft. A facsimile is attached. Steven's Mother saw a UFO last September, 2009.

Montana Unidentified

On July 9, 2010, I was at my house taking pictures of the beautiful sunset but did not notice this until I put the pictures on my computer. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Jersey Silent Ball of Light

BELFORD -- While getting ready to watch the 4th of July fireworks at 9:42 PM, we observed in a clear sky a high flying object moving way to fast to be a plane. This object made the other planes in the sky look as if they were standing still. Three minutes after that object disappeared one of the boys yelled, "Look up!” A second object moving at incredible speed, was coming from the same direction but was much lower. A round and a red glow flew north silently directly over us and were out of sight within seconds. There were spots on the outer area. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center

Washington Orbs

VANCOUVER -- I was at my cousin's house celebrating July 4, 2010, and almost everyone took a break from lighting fireworks and moved into the garage. After a couple of minutes an adult hollered, "Come out and look at these lights, they are really cool.” We saw ten bright lights traveling across the sky in pattern. Others were not staying in pattern with the brighter ones, but did not venture far from formation. At first, I thought they were some kind of illumination flare, but when I noticed they were not descending, I ran in and grabbed my camera. I snapped a picture as a light airplane flew towards the lights when all of sudden the UFO lights dissipated, disappearing in various directions. The photos show it was definitely something none of us had ever seen before. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Wisconsin Orb in Photo

APPLETON -- I was given some photos of a delivery truck that was going to get a facelift as far as the graphics go and selected a shot taken on May 28, 2009. As I zoomed in to look at the truck, I noticed a light in the sky. It does have a metallic sphere shape with a good highlight and shadow area. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Worldwide Sightings

Canada Sightings

SYDNEY, NEWFOUNDLAND -- I went out on my deck with my wife, daughter, and nephew at around 10:10 PM, on July 9, 2010, and spotted objects flying towards my house at 25,000 feet in high. Using my binoculars the objects looked disc shaped which my nephew also confirmed. Commercial planes fly over frequently so we know the difference and these objects were one solid color. The second object got really bright several times and was definitely not a conventional plane. Two minutes after they were out of sight, three large planes flew over that sounded louder than commercial aircraft that were probably military fighters. They headed in the direction of Port Morion. Over the last five years I have seen chevron shaped object which looked semi transparent. Thanks to MUFON CMS

China Disk

HANGZHOU (Xinhua) -- On July 7, 2010, aviation experts are expected to complete their investigation into an UFO that disrupted air traffic over east China for an hour on Wednesday.

An investigation team comprising police and aviation officials are still trying to identify the UFO that was located over Zhejiang Province. "No conclusion has yet been drawn," said Wang Jian, head of air traffic control with Zhejiang branch of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, told Xinhua Friday. Media have reported speculation that the UFO might have been a private aircraft, based on the increasing number of privately owned aircraft in the province.

However, an industry insider ruled out the speculation as "too unprofessional" without giving further explanation. Wang Jian said the private plane was "just a guess."Xiaoshan Airport in the provincial capital of Hangzhou was closed after a UFO was detected at around 9 p.m. Wednesday, and some flights were rerouted to airports in Ningbo and Wuxi cities. Thanks to www.ufoweek.com

According to China Daily, the 9pm sighting resulted in the closure of Xiaoshan Airport. Flights were re-routed and passengers endured lengthy delays.

Colombia UFO Moving footage with Lights

BOGOTA -- Michael Cohen reports, "The very brief UFO clip below comes from the outskirts of the capital on 8th of July 2010, in the early evening.” A couple were woken up by a weird humming type noise and looked outside to see an enormous UFO hovering over a house nearby. The husband rushed to grab his cell phone and recorded a few seconds of low quality footage that captured the UFO craft with blinking lights. Experts who have examined the clip say that it seems like a real event. Colombia is a nation where UFOs are commonplace. http://www.allnewsweb.com/page1199999389.php

Greece Anxiety Over Light in the Sky

NSA SOUDA BAY -- About 11 PM, on July 10, 2010, while smoking a twinkling object was visible to the southwest of the airport about 45 degrees up from the horizon. I dismissed it as a star at this point. At midnight, the object had disappeared from that area completely. This is when I knew something was up. I looked across the horizon and saw that the object had positioned itself to the northwest of me still at the same altitude. This time I stayed outside and watched it for several minutes noticing that it had moved very slightly to the north. The third time I went outside it was gone. Throughout the sighting, I had felt feelings of anxiety. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center

BRISTOL -- Saturday afternoon, June 19, 2010, I was in the garden preparing some metalwork for painting and looked to see if it was going to rain. I caught a glimpse of something flying high up in the clouds, moving in and out of the clouds. I used my digital camera on full zoom to see if I could see anything. We have many Peregrine Falcons around so it was a perfect chance to catch one in flight. I saw something on the led screen on full optical zoom of my Kodak MD41 and took the picture. I went inside to view the picture, of a metallic disc. I have never seen anything like this before.

Vietnam Light

HO CHI MINH CITY -- Very strange bright light that lasted for several hours. It looked like a worm hole.
